Hey guys, I recently got a haul from Japan and I am looking for a handful of covers. I found some searching around the forum but these still allude me. Thanks in advance for any help. I prefer retail covers, but I will take what ever I get for now if you guys have something.

Baseball - Famicom - JP - Retail
Devil World - Famicom - JP - Retail
Digital Devil Monogatari: Megami Tensei II - Famicom - JP - Retail
Dragon Quest IV - Famicom - JP - Retail
Final Fantasy II - Famicom - JP - Retail
Final Fantasy III - Famicom - JP - Retail
Mother - Famicom - JP - Retail

Ganbare Goemon 3 - Super Famicom - JP - Retail
Ogre Battle - Super Famicom - JP - Retail
Sanrio World Smash Ball - Super Famicom - JP - Retail

Well I don't know how I missed those on the main site. Thanks. I am glad you asked actually I just realized all my NES and Famicom are vertical customs. So for the Famicom games I would like it to match, I would prefer the art of the original Famicom box. Mean while my SNES games are all horizontal retail, so same deal there on super famicom. However I realized beggars cant be choosers, I am happy for any help.

Those Final Fantasy covers are perfect by the way, Thank you.

I made a "NTSC" Horizontal for Ganbare Goemon 3 if that works.

I found somewhat decent image of Draqon Quest IV so I can try to whip up something similar to what the Final Fantasy covers are using the back cover of the US version:

That would be great, I am good with "NTSCing" most of the games, however any that also have a US release needs to stand out as obviously the the JP release as I already have the US version. Dragon Quest IV, Baseball, and Ogre Battle to be exact.

Dragon Quest IV is not a problem as the name is different, other two share the name... but I could add both names in Japanese in addition (found pictures of both titles in Japanese... I think).
One differienting thing is the spine top logo (NES/Famicom and Super Nintendo/Super Famicom) so they can be told a part on the shelf.

Yeah that sounds great. I just shelved the FFII and FFIII and they stand out pretty well with the gold spine famicom label. By the way, youre a legend for being so helpful to a low post user like myself.

No problem, I too was a new comer once.
Actually I've been here longer but my first account was deleted somehow... :-\
I'll do cover stuff next week as this week end is hectic.
